Students’ perception on teachers’ personality has great impact on their motivation to participate in the learning process. Therefore, this study aims to explore the relationship between the personality of Islamic Education teachers towards students based on students’ perception and the motivation to learn the Islamic Education course. 381 students from lower secondary schools under the supervision of Islamic Education teachers were selected as respondents through purposive sampling. A set of questionnaire validated by field experts were distributed among students to collect the data. The data were descriptively and inferentially analysed using SPSS version 20. The study found that the level of teachers’ personality towards students based on students’ perception was high (Mean=3.86). Meanwhile, the level of students’ motivation to learn was average (Mean=3.66). The finding also showed strong and positive correlation between the personality of Islamic Education teachers towards students based on students’ perception and the motivation to learn the Islamic Education course (r=0.518, p<0.01). It can be concluded that when students have better perception towards the personality of Islamic Education teachers, their motivation to learn will increase.
